Hey Flipping community,

Some of you may have seen me DM’ing people asking them to test out a website I’ve been building. I wanted to make a proper post now because I’ve gotten some really solid feedback so far, and a few users have already been able to close deals through it.

The goal is pretty simple: help flippers, wholesalers, and investors find more deal opportunities, connect with buyers/sellers, and make JV’ing easier.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Pulls active buyers and sellers from Facebook
  2. Displays them in a dashboard so you can sort through opportunities more easily
  3. Lets users submit deals, post buy boxes, and contact people on the platform
  4. Allows wholesalers/investors to create JV offers, choose who they want to work with, and vet potential partners based on their history, deal types, and activity
  5. Ideally, helps people close more deals

I’ll be completely upfront: yes, I’m plugging my own product here. But I’m genuinely trying to build something useful for people in the flipping/wholesaling space, and I’m not afraid of harsh feedback as long as it’s constructive.

I’m running a REDDIT25 beta campaign for 25 people from this subreddit to try it free for a week. If you’re interested, you can click the link below or DM me.

Appreciate everyone who’s helped test it so far and helped me get it to this point. Any feedback from experienced flippers, wholesalers, or investors would mean a lot.

When do you guys know that your startup is a valid idea. Meaning you think you could live off of revenue for it.

In my opinion there's several stages:

  1. Idea

  2. MVP

  3. First User

  4. 5k MMR

  5. Funding your life off of it

I'm currently in between 3 and 4 but I'm in a transitional phase in my life where working on this too deeply could be costly without the "guarentee" that I'll be able to make money doing it. I'm currently running just about net 0 (costs of running the startup and a couple paying users). I've been running it for about 2 weeks now but spent 3 months building. Any and all help is appreciated, I kept it kind of vague not to plug my idea I just want advice. Thanks!

My question to all wholesailers is: Why is everything so fragmented??

I quit my old job of being a trader and now work on designing software and do some wholesailing on the side. My main source is facebook leads, I do land deals nationally but a lot of them are in PA.

Whenever I'm in those facebook groups I see buyers saying "Buying in this area" and other wholesale or FSBO deals with listings, but why list there instead of having a platform where buyers and sellers auto-meet?

Like I guess then we wouldn't get as many good deals but it reminds me of open outcry trading, you're yelling a "bid" and an "ask" and for a lot of these deals we just look at the comps of stuff in the area and then decide what we could sell it for. Its literally just manual trading. Also, why do I have to go to a different place to get my comps, propstream can you get your shi together so I can just stay in one platform.

Tbh this rant is a result of my cushioned life as a trading bro having everything at my finger tips but yeah thanks for coming to my ted-talk.

Also if you know a software that does what I'm complaining about send it to me so I can stop complaining.
